This campground is well situated, next to the South Tongue River. Even when full, this CG doesn’t seem crowded.

We had to cancel the first 4 days of it because m husband is having back issues ! We were hoping to spend the last 9 days up there but on Saturday he said his back was worse ( he is scheduled for back surgery in August) it started snowing so we called the number on your reservation site was told that it would be up to the second party if we got a refund and it would be reviewed . Bo got a email stating that . Never heard another works fyom anybody . So basically we paid for that time and never used it !

Tie Flume is a wonderful campground. There are several sites just adjacent to the South Fork of the Tongue River. Restrooms were clean. Fire pit was clean, a few logs of wood were left on top the grill. There are several locations nearby to fish on the Tongue River. Bear Lodge is also just a few minutes down the road and you can get breakfast and a shower there! I highly recommend Tie Flume campground.

We had an enjoyable stay at Tie Flume. We tent camped at camp site #13. My only complaint was there was no really level spot to set up a tent. We could have used the pad itself, but I felt it would have been too close to the fire pit and the tent may have been damaged by flying sparks/ash. There had been snow over the days prior to our arrival and the ground was pretty wet even after a couple of sunny warm days. But, we made the best of it and it worked out. Lots of wild life around the camp ground area. In fact, we had a young bull moose wander right up to our camp site munching on moose munch (I guess). He was pretty content and didn't seem to pose a threat and eventually wandered off. Deer, rabbits, ground squirrels, chipmunks, any number of bird species constantly entertained us. We especially enjoyed the Grey Jays. Our neighbors respected the noise curfew, it was definitely quiet in the overnight hours.

5 stars for site host, campsite was clean, facilities were clean

2 stars for the overall campsite, it is VERY busy. Cars traveling through during the day and you are close to a road so you always hear traffic-think motorcycles and ATVs-loud! We had a lot of kids with us so with the business it wasn't the best campsite for us and the kids.

This was our 3rd time visiting. It is such a peaceful place. The stars are so close you feel like you can touch them. The silence that is there is so beautiful. Cooking all your meals over the fire! My husband enjoyed the fly fishing. Fun family memories to last a lifetime!! Can’t wait to go back!
